RB Leipzig against FC St. Pauli: DFB Cup duel of the surprises!

In an exciting duel of the 2nd main round of the DFB Cup, RB Leipzig will meet FC St. Pauli on Tuesday, October 29, 2024. The game takes place in Leipzig and will kick off at 6:00 p.m. However, fans must note that the encounter is not transmitted on free TV. Instead, spectators can follow the game live on the Pay TV station Sky, who starts with the preliminary spaces at 5:30 p.m. The game in the live stream will also be available via the Sky Go-app and WoW TV, but a subscription is required.

Leipzig goes into the match as a clear favorite, but has to do without the injured Xavi Simons, who has contracted a ligament injury in the Champions League game against Liverpool. Coach Marco Rose is optimistic: "We have a squad that we trust. It is an opportunity for other players to prove themselves." Despite the favorite role, surprises can always be expected in the DFB Cup, so that FC St. Pauli also senses its chances.
